SOME DAY.

''Some day." the maiden softly said.
And on her cheeks the roses red
Spoke OF a dream for that sweet time,
AS fair as any poets rhyme
''Some day I'll be his loving bride q
And walk the pathway by his side"
~'Some day, my boy to manhood grown,
VIII reap bright honors now unknown;
He'll smooth the pathway that tread"
The doting mother proudly said;
Hell fight LIES battles nobly through
And win them all-Ny boy SO true!'
'Some day I'll wear the crown Of fame,
The wise and great shall speak my name
With praise, and read the glowing thought
My ready pen with truth has wrought;
My work shall live when am dead"
The boyish lips with fervor SAID.
~'Some day'--alas! the years creep by,
The maiden saw her lover die;
The mother sits with broken moan
Each day beside her lone hearthstone;
The youth whose heart was set on fame
Sank meath the blight of sin and shame.
Yet weary hearts toll on and say:
~IThe blessed light will dawn some dayl"
While closely round the pathway lies
The golden wealth Of sunny skies.
Through restless longings Oft we miss
Our greatest share of present bliss,
And only faith in Him above
Can bring us aught OF peace or love.

MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS.
Personal Appearance OF the UnfortunaS
Rival of Elizabeth.

Personal Appearance OF the Unfortunate
Rival OF Elizabeth.
Her complexion, though ikened by
Brantome to alabaster and ivory, does
not seem to have possessed the clear
ness and brilliancy which the compare
son implies; for Sir James Melville,
though anxious to vindicate his Queens
claim to be considered ''very lovely
and ''the fairest lady in her country"
acknowledged that she was less
white" than Elizabeth. The bright
ness of her eyes, which Brantome
hkened to stars and Chastelard to bea-
cons, has not been questioned; but
their color is a point about which there
is less unanimity, opinions varying be-
tween hazel and dark gray. As regards
her hair, the discrepancy of contem-
porary authorities is even greater.
Brantome and Ronsard describe a
wealth of golden hair, and this is to
certain extent confirmed by Sir James
Melville, who, when called upon by
Elizabeth to pronounce whether his
Queens hair was fairer than her own,
answered that ''the fairnes of them
bath was not their worst faltes." To
this, however, must be opposed the
testimony of Nicholas White, who,
writing to Cecil in 1868. described the
Queen as black haired. The explana-
ton of this may possibly lie in Mary's
compliance with the fashion, introduced
about this time, of wearing wigs. In
deed, Knollys informed White that she
wore chair of sundry colors," and, in .
letter to Cecil, praised the skill witt
which Mary Seton-''the finest busker
of hair to be seen in any countrywide
set such a curled hair upon the Queen,
that was said to be perewyke, that
showed very delicately."
According to one account, the Queen
of Scots wore black, according to an
other, auburn ringlets on the morning
of her execution. Both, however, agree
in this, that when the false covering
fell she appeared as gay as if she had
been sixty and ten years old"
Mary's hand was white, but not
small. the long, tapering fingers
mentioned by Brantome being, in
deed, characteristic Of some of her
portraits. She was of tail stature, tai
Ter than Elizabeth, which made the
queen OF England pronouce her cousin
to be too tall. she herself being, ac-
cording to her own standard, ''neither
too high nor too low" Her voice was
irresistibly soft and sweet Not only
does Brantome extol it as ''tres deuce
ct tres bonne," and Ronsard POLITICALLY
celebrate it as capable of moving rocks
and woods, but Knox, although I'M
graciously and unwillingly, also testi-
fies to its charms. He informs us that
at one of her Parliaments the Queen
made a ''paynted orison," and that, on
this occasion, ''thair mycht have been
hard among hir hatterias, 'Vox Dians!'

JACKSONVILLE, TEX, July 5.-The
memorable Fourth of July mas come and
gone and with it the largest crowd ever
entertained by our citizens. Early in the
day people began to arrive in wagons and
horseback from the country. At 1880
a. m, excursion trains from Palestine,
Tyler, Rusk, Troupe and smaller towns
arrived bringing many prominent citizens
from those towns. Fully 5000 visitors
were here to partake of Jacksonville's
hospitality. i II g. m. the ire Compa-
MES from Palestine and Tyler together
with other organizations formed in pro-
cession and took up the line of march to
the grounds, headed by the Tyler
COrnet band. Upon the arrival
Of the procession at the grounds the Hon.
Frank Templeton delivered an address of
welcome, which was happily received and
was responded to by Judge John Link of
Palestine, after which the Declaration of
Independence was read by Miss Eliza
Davis. An essay was also read by young
lady from Palestine. Ample provisions
were made for feeding the immense crowd.
Nearly sixty csrcasses were barbecued
and served at dinner besides many bas-
kets brought in after the dinner. The
base ball clubs of Palestine and Tyler
competed for prize, but they were inter
rupted by a shower. After the rain
the Palestine and Tyler gun clubs shot
one match of sixty single and one of
seventy-tWo double pigeons, resulting in
8 victory for Palestine by q score Of Sc to
Il. At $50 p. N. the visitors returned
to their homes, except those who remain
ed to trip the light fantastic toe at the
opera house at night.
The threadbsre question of prohibition
has become so stale in these parts that it
was rarely mentioned during the entire
day. Everything went Off quietly.

GOVERNMENTS, STOCKS AND BONDS.
New YORK, July 5.-The stock market
was dull and quite weak to-day. Transac-
tions were principally in half dozen
stocks, the remainder being entirely I'M
interesting. There was slim attendance
at the board this morning, and though
there were some purchases, orders were
executed chiefly for foreign account. The
demand was soon supplied Wien traders
embraced the opportunity to again raid
the market, and as they met with no op-
position values at the close of the day
were materially lower than this
morning. The higher rates for
money prevailing in the forenoon
were favorable to the tactics Of the bears,
and when they eased of late in the day
some slight improvement was made.
There was q moderately firm opening,
which was followed by fractional adj
vance IN the general list, while Reading
showed remarkable strength, gaining }
per cent. within the first half hour, while
its transactions were about half of the to-
tai business during that time. The re
mainder of the market was almost
stagnant until buying was eX-
hausted, when heavy tone over
spread the market and Reading
became particularly quiet, while more
animation was shown in the other stocks.
In the afternoon decided weakness was
developed, New England, Louisville and
Nashville and Pacific Mail being most
prominent. There was g slight rally in
the last hour, but the close was dull and
heavy generally at shade above the
lowest figures.
Railroad bonds were dull. Most of
the changes in prices are fractional,
though Central Pacific land grants are
down g to 10.
Government bonds dull and heavy.
